Tasty Pumpkin Bread

I know I am not alone in loving everything pumpkin during this time of year and since Halloween is tomorrow I figured what better timing than to share a pumpkin bread recipe! I had so much fun making this bread and let me tell you this recipe is delicious. While not quite the healthiest recipe it will definitely make your taste buds sing. This bread has the perfect amount of pumpkin and spices and it is so moist and light and fluffy and delicious. I also took the liberty to add some pumpkin spiced pumpkin seeds to the top and they just added the perfect crunch. Also this makes a lot of bread, two loaf pans to be exact, so you will be having pumpkin bread for days. If you are looking for a delicious pumpkin bread recipe to make this autumn then look no further!
